The Zeigarnik Effect is the tendency to experience intrusive thoughts about an objective that was once pursued but left incomplete.
“Music for Large Ensemble” by Steve Reich, on the CD Triplet Quartet by the artists Ossia and Alarm Will Sound.
After last night’s news, how could I -not- feature Steve Reich? I was lucky enough to hear an acoustic version of his winning Double Sextet in a concert with Eighth Blackbird this year, so the win is well deserved. This piece, while older, tends to remind me a great deal of the sound and energy of that performance.
